Construction accident

On 18 July 2012, two Chinese workers died after a temporary scaffolding, about 4m high, used for the construction of the new Downtown Line station subway link roof slab gave way. The incident happened at about 6.50am. The eight other injured workers who were working on top of the structure, were sent to the nearby Raffles Hospital before rescuers arrived. They had minor injuries and five of them have since been discharged. Of the remaining three workers who were hospitalised, one suffered from abdominal and chest injuries, while another suffered a back injury and the last had a finger injury. Seven of the injured are from Bangladesh while the eighth is from China. Based on preliminary information gathered, the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) said that while the workers were pouring concrete, also known as the casting process, into the formwork when the structure supporting the formwork collapsed.[1][2][3]
